I apologize for the @zos knock, but Cleansing Ritual is getting out of hand in Cyrodiil. Gaining popularity, is the use of Cleansing Ritual to intentionally Plague break bomb "friendly" players/faction. These players are spamming this skill, placing Purify Synergy above all.
Please reduce the size of Cleansing Ritual to a 6meter area, 12 is unnecessary.
Thank you.
A group/player doesn't need a 12m area dot cleanse, at almost no cost.
The size of this skill is absurd, and long overdue to be adjusted with the synergies priority update. This could be handled in pts now if ZOS wants to improve Cyrodiil.
How do you know they are intentionally doing it? And furthermore if they really are intentionally doing it, why would they use Cleansing Ritual and not Purge - you know, the skill that doesn't give you a choice if you want to activate a synergy or not.
Also the synergy has been adjusted with the synergies priority update already and it was deemed most important as long as you have a negative effect on you. Don't forget PvE players are using this skill too and if they can't cleanse a lethal effect because someone is spamming orbs...
You know what is an L2P issue though? Not activating that synergy when you know you have Plague Break on you. Sure, you cannot control everyone in your zerg, but that is kind of the point of a zerg killer set isn't it?

It's also a good HoT for placing under ram or other areas where there is consistent, incoming damage.
If someone wanted to be more markedly malicious, they could use Purge. Purge hits an area, and doesn't give friendlies an option. They could use Curse Eater, which offers no to little visual cue that it's being used.
Too, there's plugins that block synergies, or certain synergies.
The issue isn't really the class; it's the item set.
One of the reasons that it'd be nice to have Oakensoul separated from ww is it lets them be balanced separately, and similar reasons which HackTheMinotaur outlined rather eloquently.
ZOS could make this skill group only synergy, Purify.
If people are actually intentionally purge bombing their own people, then let them, they are sad weird creatures deserving pity.
If a player wanted to be malicious wouldn't it be easier to cast Efficient Purge and not have your trolling be optional? It seems to me like the "good guys" would use Ritual so a friendly player would have the option to cleanse when it made sense for him/her.

Edit: Cleansing Ritual a group only synergy, Purify.
Thank you.

And this is such a bad reason to nerf a skill.
And then you can't be solo anymore because all of your helpful skills only work on groups. No thanks.
As Guarstompemoji says, it's the set that's the problem not the skill. The only change ZOS could make that would make sense is lower the synergy's priority in Cyrodiil only.
But let me ask you, what other synergy is so important in PvP it needs to be activated so much that your group keeps wiping because they accidentally use the cleanse synergy?
Every synergy is more important than Cleansing Ritual in PvP, every single one.
I am not opposed to making Cleansing Ritual synergy Purify priority at the bottom/last, added to initial post.
